China’s system is probably better characterized as “State Capitalism” than communism, since the workers don’t own the means of production.

- moate 8y agoWe could just go with "Russian Communism" as well and call it a day. Your point is valid, it's not proper Communism as Marx envisioned.
- chillacy 8y agoFor sure, Russian Communism after capitalist reforms of the 80s. There's definitely still a lot of top-down planning in China, but there also aren't people lining up for allocated food.
